Under the Dome - Stephen King

Under the Dome An Epic Thriller from the No. 1 Bestseller Stephen King “Propulsively intriguing… staggeringly addictive.” — USA Today From the master of suspense, Stephen King, comes an electrifying, high-concept thriller that explores human nature under pressure — and the terrifying consequences when ordinary life is suddenly cut off from the world. The Story On a clear autumn morning, the small New England town of Chester’s Mill is suddenly and inexplicably sealed off by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it. Cars explode on impact. Panic spreads as families are torn apart and the community is thrown into chaos. No one can explain what the barrier is, where it came from, or when — or if — it will disappear. As resources dwindle and fear takes hold, a handful of citizens, led by Dale “Barbie” Barbara, an Iraq War veteran turned short-order cook, must stand against Big Jim Rennie, a ruthless local politician intent on seizing absolute power. But the greatest enemy of all may be the dome itself — and the darkness it draws out in those trapped beneath it.
